4. To propagate suitable literature relating to “NONKILLING' among the people in all the provincial languages, to carry on propaganda among the non-vegetarians through propagandists and to adopt such other methods as may be appropriate for the purpose.
5. To take up other questions in the interests of human welfare, provided they are non-political,
The League distributes thousands of leaflets and pamplets every month, in the four different languages of the Madras Presidency. It has organised a propagandist group, and a Bhajana party. Lectures and Bhajanas are being conducted every morning in the different quarters of the city. The League arranges public lectures by eminent scholars on the subject every month. A Magic Lanten, or, if funds allow, a Baby Pathe Cenema, is to be purchased for purposes of wider and more effective propaganda throughout the Presidency. It may be mentioned here, that this organisation is the firs! of its kind started on a permanent basis and controlled exclusively by Indians for effective and brisk propaganda in South India. It augurs well for its future that it bas secured the co-operation of institutions like the S. P. C. A. of Madras and the Deccan Humanitarian League of Hyderabad etc. and of many eminent scholars and influential gentlemen in India.
Yet, considering the magnitude of the task before the League, it need not be said that it can not do without the encouragement and co-operation of the charitably inclined gentlemen in every part of the country.
Any man can help the League ::-1. By joining the League as a member; 2. By contributing liberally to its funds: 3. By taking to strict vegetarian diet and by persuading his friends and neighbours to do so.
Propaganda tracts and further particulars regarding the League can be had from the Honorary Secretary, the S. I. Humanitarian League, 436, Mint Street, Madras.
